Subject: shop design

I should have written about my shop sooner--. When my old shop burned
down , i started my new shop by having a steel man put up a framework
of 12 in , by 1in by diferent lengths steel girders with 15 feet
projecting out past the shop, so i could drive under it and pick up 2
or 3 ton rocks and molve them over the i beem into the outdoor shop or
into the indoor shop. I dont remember exactly but this is at least 20
ft high, so the one door to the shop has 2-- 20 ft high doors that open
so i can move loads into the i n door shop After the steel frame was
up and welded solid i had my younger son build the rest of the
building. its great, but i'm afraid one has to actually see it and use
it like i do to appreciate it. Hope you have included the drive under
feature,. and have it high enough to lift really big pieces of rock,
--long pieces=== long and wide--. My electric chain hoist is used
almost every day , ,,now even for 1cubit foot limestone which weighs
150 lbs as i have trouble at 78 lifting that much. . My --present
project is 6 1ft cubes , 2 --10 inch cubes and the bott om 18 in cube.
Im doing faces \ called P,R.I.D.E. which is People respecting
individually and diversity in everyone. --, about half finished --some
really unusual faces i feel cr schiefer
